How to Remove Rear Door Handle
Hey guys. I'm having trouble getting to the T-20 screw in the rear door to take the door handle off. I took the front one off since it's not too far in and therefore easy to see, but there's a lot more room for error in the back and I can't see the screw inside even when trying to flash a light in there...any help?

guess i'll just have to try and get lucky tomorrow.
i'm also having trouble putting the handle of the front door back on. I'm pretty sure i'm supposed to put the actual handle in first and then the smaller piece, but I just can't get it to work.

aaaand in case anyone cares, here's a couple quick pics of the door i wrapped today. i also wrapped the chrome trim in gloss black.
hopefully i can figure out how to get the handle back on and knock out the rear door tomorrow as well.

got the fender done today.
still need help figuring out how to take the rear door handles off. I've got a 6 inch torx screwdriver, but there's just so much room for error. would it be easier if I just took the whole inside door panel off?

That bolt is only accessible through the hole. Removal of the interior panel is not only unnecessary, it gains you nothing on the rear handle.
Dang. Just saw how old this thread is. Found it in a search, not by browsing. Off to lunch, now, bye.
